Here's a look at Castle Creation's newest entry level brushless combo. The Sidewinder 3 ESC and 1406 4-Pole motor steps up your RTR rig's performance. Combine that with waterproof performance and you will have some trouble free fun in you sub 5lbs. Castle's "plug n play" system with minimal soldering (just your choice of high current connector (Traxxas, Deans, etc)) will get you playing very quick after the easy install. Your choice of 4600, 5700, 6900 and 7700kv options give a huge range of speed vs. torque. I will show what comes in the newly designed box and some upclose video of each of the components.

RC Car Action magazine's Test Bench review here!
Castle's Sidewinder ESC, the leading 1/10th scale sport brushless ESC, is now waterproof. The new Sidewinder 3 can power crawlers on water filled trails, SCTs through rain soaked parking lots, and AWDs on rips across muddy fields. Drivers can follow their irresistible urges to drive in the mud or stomp their truck in puddles without damaging their controller.
Designed for 1/10th
The Sidewinder 3 is a great fit for 1/10th off-road, on-road, and rock crawlers running up to 3S LiPo. It sports updated circuitry for faster response time and improved reliability. As always, the Sidewinder 3 offers industry-leading software functions and USB programming capability via Castle Link USB adapter (sold separately).
Same Amazing Price
Retaining the astonishing retail price of $79.95 (ESC only), the Sidewinder 3 offers world class performance at an entry level price.
Legal mumbo jumbo
Although Sidewinder 3 and Castle brushless motors are waterproof, always rinse the ESC and motor with fresh water after exposure to corrosives or dirt. While the motor and controller may be waterproof, we suggest users confirm that the rest of their vehicle, including the batteries, servo, radio and chassis, are also waterproof before exposing them to liquids of any kind.
